Getting my 65 110/pg/4dr ready for the season I noticed two problems.
1. If I leave the emergency brake on overnight and try to go forwards or
backwords it takes a bit to make it move. Have to rev the engine with it
in gear, and then it will jerk once and move. I presume its the emergency
brake sticking, but thought I would ask.
2. In the parking lot, get it going 20 take the hands off the wheel and
hit the brakes hard. Leave about a 20 foot patch with 1 tire. The
steering wheel spins, and the car vears about 2 feet twards the side of the
skid mark.
My normal yearly wake up is to change the oil.
Bleed the brakes.
Check the tires.
In addition I am thinking of re-building the wheel cyl. Last done 4
seasons ago.
Changing the rubber hoses.
Any oppions are appreciated.
Have the parts, keep them in inventory...just in case.
